About Cat:

After studying languages and linguistics at Monash University I caught the travel bug and came to Japan. I immediately fell in love with the culture, the people and the man who would become my husband. Once I married I became the wife of the eldest son in a farming family. Tradition. Tradition. Tradition. 

I'm a passionate learner, an avid reader and people describe me as a go-getter. Not a day goes by when I do not learn something new. I bring this passion for discovery to every project I work on.

You might wonder how I have time to be a mother (of two teenagers), heavily involved in the community in which we live and able to pursue my personal interests of sailing and embroidery as well as wearing and making kimono. My days are full but I start each one with a walk in the park with our Tohoku rescue-dog, Xyris. 

Life has been good to me. It would be my pleasure to discover something new and add to my personal knowledge of Japan and her rich culture by working together with you to bring your words to life - in English.
